the definitive melancholy playlist

you notice how this is all in lower case and there’s no capital letters? even the title. that’s meant to represent my mood. is it working? it’s actually really bothering me because i’m kind of a grammar nazi. i’m going to stop now.

Anyway, yes, it’s fair to say that I’ve been feeling quite melancholy lately. You might even say I’ve been a little depressed, sad, whatever. It’s not hormones, for Christ’s sake I’m almost 30. No, there’s nothing actually WRONG, I’m just sad and I don’t know why. Actually it’s not even that I feel sad, sometimes it’s more like I just feel… nothing. Things I used to enjoy are boring to me. I can’t make up my mind about anything and I just feel so fucking blahhhhhhhhhh. But that’s not what this blog is about. Feelings and shit. Nope, it’s about solid pop culture awesomeness.

So, here’s an absolutely amazing playlist for you. You could call it a melancholy playlist. You could call it a depression playlist. You could call it a sad playlist. You could even call it a curl-into-the-fetal-position-and-rock-back-and-forth playlist. It’s good medicine if you feel like shit and you don’t know why. It’s gotten me through some feels, and I hope it gets you through some feels too.
